Hello,

With the version 16, as a user,

gphoto2 -l

gives:

*** Error ***
An error occurred in the io-library ('I/O problem'): Could not open USB
device (Permission denied).

*** Error (-7: 'I/O problem') ***

For debugging messages, please use the --debug option.

If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list <gphoto-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>, please run
gphoto2 as follows:

env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt -l

Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments.

while as root:

There is 1 folder in folder '/'.
- store_00010001
There are 0 folders in folder '/store_00010001'.

It looks like that there is a right issue.

running selinux in permissive mode does not help.

How can I fix this issue?
Thank.

Regards.

I don't know if this would help or not; I recently had a similar issue with
xsane - would not find my printer which was on a USB port. So I used lsusb
to find which bus/device the printer was on, then changed the permission to
a+w for the /dev/bus/usb/ device in question. Then, I was able to run xsane
as a normal user. HTH.
